fiction can't have bad guys in it

 

They might as well say they want to bring back the Hays Code.

 

It’s still up actually: https://www.spacejam.com/1996/

 

Lol you gotta love the people who outright identify themselves as Nazis. Not like "oh someone called me a Nazi" ones. Actual, Third Reich, swastika-wearing Nazis.

 

So, the people who made a series of games entirely premised on brutally murdering and mutilating Nazis are anti-Nazi?

 

The post that set this off was actually about Alien.

 

My argument: u dumb

 

Well-structured.

 

Blue checkmarks proving they can be dumb outside politics as well

 

Spoiler: prolly not appropriate

 

1. In space, no one can hear you scream.

2. Screaming is an essential part of horror movies.

3. Ergo, horror movies cannot be set in space.

 

LOL did you see her actual justification for her opinion?



"space, we already don't know it." Who said criticism is dead?

 

"Space. We already don't know it. These are the voyages of the starship Nostromo..."

 

"Space. It's ******* big."

 

Approximately 134,136,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000km wide and counting...

 

****replies aside, if Twitter hadn't conditioned me to expect baffling takes of this sort I'd swear it was a put-on. "Horror is predicated on fear of the unknown. Space is full of unknown. Therefore, because it's known to be unknown, we can't be confronted by the unknown unknown, so horror doesn't work." is beautiful in a bad way, the perfect troll argument. If it were intentional, you'd hang it in a museum.

Anyway let me get back to what really matters ITT:
